Sunday wrap-up post
Jan. 24th, 2010 08:51 amI'm caught in an endless loop of glasses problems. My old glasses are significantly out of date, but they're adjusted correctly. (I have a really complex lens, with prisms and bifocals and all sorts of things.) I can't afford new "daily" glasses until next paycheck, but I did spring for character glasses because one of the local cheapo eye places was having a major sale. Those give me much clearer vision... but I can't get them adjusted properly to the sweet spot. So I put on the new ones, can see almost perfectly except for a sudden loss of peripheral vision, take them off to twist them a bit, put them on, take them off, twiddle some more, get frustrated, put on the old ones, notice the major difference in vision, take them off and put on the new ones...
Feh. How do you keep an idiot occupied? Write "how do you keep an idiot occupied; see over" on both sides of a page. Do I go downtown to the good eyeglass place and get these adjusted by someone who *really* knows his job, then go down *again* when I'm paid to order the daily ones? Or do I live with the old ones (or this lens-based rotisserie of the nose) until I get paid and spare myself the extra trip?
G.O. Organize Score: 84 of 100 (about where I'm expecting it to average)
( The details )
Personal
Recipe Tried: No new recipe
On needles:
- keyboard wrist rest
- garter stitch blanket in Rowan summer tweed (on hold for next travel, as is excellent travel project)
Commuting Class: Teaching Co's London: A Short History, lectures 13-19
Reading: between books. Will be picking up Wicked Plants, the Weed that Killed Lincoln's Mother from the library, and have We Two, Victoria and Albert: Rulers, Partners, Rivals cued up in audio after I've listened to this week's USF review stuff.
